Woman Assaulted While Walking From Santee Bar

Deputies are searching for the suspect who assaulted a woman as she left a Santee bar early Sunday morning.

The woman was walking from the Second Wind bar, traveling near Prospect Avenue and Pepper Drive at about 12:45 a.m., when someone came up behind her.

The woman was able to kick the suspect, and the man ran away.

The suspect is described as a light-skinned man in his mid-twenties with light, short hair.
